Diatom 성분이 함유된 자연 퇴적토층의 공학적 특성은 대상층의 변형 및 강도의 특이한 특성 때문에 다수의 연구자에 의해 수 십년간 연구되어 왔다. 원반형 혹는 원통형 모양을 한 diatom의 존재는 재료의 낮은 압축성, 높은 투수성, 높은 전단강도 특성을 나타내게 하며, 이러한 특이한 차이점들은 큰 내부입자 간극과 모난 입자의 결합력으로 diatom의 특성을 나타낸다. 이러한 현상은 흙의 공학적 특성을 변화시켜서 지반개량 재료로써 diatom을 이용할 수 있음을 의미한다. 본 논문은 diatom 개량토의 공학적 특성을 연구하기 위해 diatom-kaolin 혼합토의 공학적 특성을 통상적인 지반공학 실험 및 탄성파를 이용한 미소변형 실험, 전자기파를 이용한 전기저항 측정실험 등을 통하여 평가하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면, diatom 함유량에 따라 흙의 공학적 개선이 이루어진 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 높은 응력에서 diatom 입자의 결합이 파괴되어 일부 공학적 특성이 저감되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

We used diatom and porewater data of two piston cores from the central subbasin and one from the western subbasin in the Bransfield Strait in the northern Antarctic Peninsula to elucidate the depositional mechanism of the layered diatom ooze. The layered diatom ooze is characterized by an abundance of organic carbon, biogenic silica, sulfde sulfur, and lower porewater sulfate concentration. This lack of pore-water sulfate concentration in the diatom ooze interval may reflect development of reducing micro-environment in which bacterially mediated sulfate reduction occurred. The negative relationship between the total organic carbon and sulfate contents, however, indicates that sulfate reduction was partly taking place but does not control organic carbon preservation in this unit. Rather, well-preserved Chaetoceros resting spores in the layered diatom ooze indicate a rapid sedimentation of the diatom as a result of repetitive iceedge blooms on the Bransfield shelf during the cold period (around 2500 yrs BP) when the permanent seaice existed on the shelf, During this period, it is expected that the downslope-flowing cold and dense water was also formed on the Bransfield shelf as a result of sea ice formation, playing an important role for the formation of layered diatom ooze in the Bransfield subbasins.

심해저 지반에서 가스하이드레이트를 추출하는 경우 diatom과 같은 미세 입자 이동으로 인하여 해저 사면파괴 및 생산성 저하가 발생할 수 있으므로, 미세 입자 이동과 동반한 해저 지반특성 변화에 대한 연구가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는, 모래 지반에 대하여 투수가 발생할 시 미세 diatom 입자 이동으로 인한 지반의 수리 특성 변화를 평가하고자 하였다. 우선 동해 울릉분지 가스하이드레이트 퇴적층을 모사하기 위하여 주문진 표준사와 diatom 혼합 시료를 부피비에 따라 15개의 시료로 조성 및 변수위 투수실험을 수행하였다. 또한 diatom 부피비 50% 및 0%인 교호층 시료의 상 하부 수압차를 3kPa, 6kPa, 9kPa로 조정하여 정수위 투수실험을 수행함으로써 미세 diatom 입자 이동을 모사하고 입자이동 구간에서의 투수계수 및 전기비저항을 측정하였다. 변수위 투수 실험 결과, diatom의 부피비가 증가할수록 시료의 투수계수가 감소하였고, 투수계수 감소 곡선은 diatom 부피비가 10% 이하일 때보다 10%~50% 구간에서 기울기가 완만해 졌으며, diatom 부피비가 50%이상일 때 다시 기울기가 증가하였다. 정수위 투수 실험 결과, diatom이 이동하여 diatom 입자 이동 구간의 투수계수는 감소하고 전기비저항은 증가하였다. 본 연구는 미세 입자 이동이 교호층 지반의 투수계수를 감소시키며, 투수계수와 전기비저항의 반비례관계를 바탕으로 미세 입자 이동으로 인한 혼합시료의 거동을 예측할 수 있음을 보여준다.

An algicidal effect of endemic algicidal bacterium (Pseudomonas putida) and rotifer zooplankton (Brachionus calyciflorus) on diatom Stephanodiscus hantzschii were examined in the filtered water, and were compared with those of bacterium plus ciliate. Bacteria removed as 80% of the diatom within 3.5 days, while ciliate and zooplankton suppressed 57% and 40% of diatom during the same period, respectively. Mixed treatment of bacteria plus ciliate removed as 54% of diatoms, while that of bacteria plus zooplankton decreased as 85%. Although single bacteria and mixed treatment of bacteria plus zooplankton quickly decreased the diatom in the initial of experiment, bacteria plus ciliate perfectly removed the diatom in culture flask within 5.5 days of the study. On the other hand, other single and mixed treatments did not clear the diatom during the same period, and over 10% of them still remain in culture flask. Predator biomass in the presence of algicidal bacteria showed the growth patterns; zooplankton gradually decreased, and ciliate sustained over 0.5 cells/ml. These results indicated that the addition of ciliate to the algicidal bacterium in controlling the diatom Stephanodiscus hantzschii is more effective than that of zooplankton. Therefore, this synergistic interaction relationship between the bacterium and ciliate play an important role in the bio-manipulation using bio-agents to control the diatomal bloom in freshwater lakes and streams.

This study is quantitative reconstruction of palaeo sea level records around Sinduk-ri, Gochang-Gun. 7 cores were collected from GC14 to GC18 in order to examine the entire sedimentary facies and reconstruct the sea level records. The cores were analysed by AMS, sedimentary facies, diatom and WA-pls. As a result of the diatom analysis, diatom zone were classified as No diatom zone, B1 zone, M zone and B2 zone. The result of WA-pls was that the sea level was about 1.5m lower than the present level around 6,000 BP and about 1m lower during last 5,000 BP. Thereafter, sea level rose to the present during the Mc sub-diatom zone period. Moreover, during the Md sub-diatom zone period, sea level was about 0.5m higher than the present.

남극 브랜스필드 해협의 동부분지로부터 획득한 GC08-EB01 코어퇴적물의 고해상 엽층리로부터 규조를 이용하여 고기후변화를 연구하였다. 규조 정량 분석의 결과 규조 개체수 농도는 $0.4-4.2{\times}10^8g^{-1}$로 매우 풍부하게 산출되었으며, 엽층리는 생물기원의 규조가 풍부한 층과 육성기원 퇴적물이 풍부한 층으로 구분된다. 규조 엽층리는 Corethron crilophilum, Eucampia antarctica, Fragilariopsis curta, F. kerguelensis, Odontella weissflogii, Proboscia inermis, R. styliformis, Thalassiosira antarctica와 Chaetoceros resting spores 등의 번성이 특징적이며, 육원성 엽층리에서는 규조 군집이 혼합되어 나타나는 것이 특징이다. 홀로세 후기 동안 Fragilariopsis curta+F. cylindrus)/Thalassiosira antarctica의 산출 수직 분포비가 급격히 증가하는 구간은 해빙의 확장을 지시하며, 연구 코어 GC08-EB01 코어퇴적물이 퇴적되는 동안 적어도 5번의 한랭기가 있었음을 알려준다.

The diatoms were investigated at three lowland swamps in Haman county form July, 1983 to July, 1984 on monthly interval. Seasonal changes of standing crops, the variation of dominant species and species composition were studied. The maximum of standing crops showed bimodal pattern at Chilnalpol and Yujnnup. Dominant species were Navicula crytocephala, Cocconeis placentula, Achnanthes minutissima, Achnanthes lanceolata, Synedra ulna, Eunotia lunaris. Dominant species changed seasonally. Total 166species of diatom were identified. Three lowland swamps supported a rich diatom flora composed of many species typically associated with benthic diatom.

This study investigated the correlation between the diatom community and the environmental variables on the tidal flat surface of the eastern part of Gomso Bay in the West coast of Korea in order to utilize the quantitative sea level record as a basic data. 24 sediment samples at 10cm intervals downstream of the Galgok Stream were used for diatom analysis, grain size analysis and CCA. As a result of diatom analysis, marine diatoms dominated at lower altitudes and the ratio of diatoms to fresh water diatoms and brackish diatoms increased toward upland. As a result of CCA, the contribution of environmental variables was analyzed as 25.3% at altitude, 21.6% at sand, 13.3% at skewness, etc. This means that altitude above sea level has the greatest influence on the diatom composition in the tidal flat surface. It suggests that the contribution of environmental variables at altitude above sea level can be used as a basic data for the quantitative records for reconstruction of paleo-sea level.

Shape separation method - a separation process which utilizes the fact that particles of different shape behave differently in force fields- is regarded as an useful measure for recycling, mineral processing, upgrading powdered material and so on. In this study, a trial was given to shape separation method using fluid field to recover pure diatom skeleton - which is thought to have many uses in itself and potential for various applications -from low grade diatomaceous earth of southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula. The striking difference of shape between diatom skeleton and other minerals like clay and quartz made it natural to choose shape separation method. Considering the size of particles to be separated, among many possible methods of shape separation, hydrodynamic field using hydrocyclone was adopted. And it resulted in recovery of pure diatom skeleton with high purity

The microstructure of diatom frustules found in mud sediments along the coast of Boryeong- city, South Korea, was observed using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the constituent elements of diatoms were analyzed using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Diatom frustules and clay minerals were present in the SEM images of the mud powder. High-magnification SEM images revealed that the surface of the frustules contained identically shaped circular pores, measuring 1 ㎛ in diameter, arranged at regular intervals. This study revealed that the diatom shell fragments in the mud powder ranged in size from 3 to 30 ㎛, with an average thickness of approximately 2.5 ㎛. The elements Si, Al, Fe, K, Na, Mg, and Ti were detected while analyzing the frustule constituents, with Si being the primary component with the highest content.
